Mona Chau always took the reasonable path: she became an investment banker right out of NYU and, five years later, was set to marry Adam Lam, the venture capitalist with to-die-for dimples. So what made her quit her job, break her engagement, and run away to a small town upstate? Unfortunately, she can’t remember - she wakes up in a hospital bed with her memory reset to senior year of college. Now Mona must untangle her past and decide: what choices will she make the second time around?
Mona Again was written in 30 days during my first National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) in 2007, and addresses an audience yearning for Asian American lead characters. I started writing the story while moonlighting as a corporate finance assistant at Bear Stearns, a profession my Chinese father wishes I chose instead of acting.
